How about demolishing this “historical architectural gem” and builting something better. To all you history buffs, who is goint to pay to “save” this POS building. I work nearby, and I’d like to be save from being stoned to death. Grow up people. It is time to move on and demolish this place,

Mike—an unskilled laborer doesn’t need to make 20.00/hr. If you want to make that kind of money, go to school and learn a trade. Betcha you don’t make 20.00 an hour or anything close to it.

Nobody said anything about asbestos dust. We’re talking about the Laborers Union telling Issa he needed to hire union laborers at 20.00/hr. So now NOBODY’s working on the Statler—That’s good for everyone all the way around, isn’t it.

pawel—Have you ever been IN the Statler? Who is going to save it? The way shit works up there, NOBODY. Government, Unions, the Mob, everyone’s gonna have their hand out. You’d have to be an idiot to try, even if you had the cash to do it with.
